Crimean landscape. Russia. Early 20th century
sia antion, riga, latvia

It is built on multidirectional vectors of movement of the sea, and clouds rising to the mountains. The diagonal composition is balanced by three poplar verticals and a green-roofed house that gives a sense of the presence of people. The unsteady haze of a hot day is conveyed by the mobility of the atmosphere, surf, glare of stones and running clouds.
